Okay, just getting an idea where you are coming from. I am strongly rooted in the constitution prior to progessives (Wilson) changing it. In my original post I was trying to understand how changes could be made to undo that given MAGA and the trend towards national/populism.
“I am strongly rooted in the constitution prior to progessives (Wilson) changing it.”
Woodrow Wilson took the oath of office on March 4, 1913. The 17th Amendment was ratified on April 8, 1913.
Wilson must have had some pretty strong magic to have changed the Constitution in one month and four days.
If I recall correctly an Amendment becomes effective on the date that 3/4 of the States ratify it. Meaning that Wilson had nothing at all to with the 17th Amendment becoming law, nor the 16th for that matter.
